Unbelievable

 

At Hannaford, waiting for dad. Look how green!

     So active today with no loss of energy!  Woke about five wig only 2 hours of cpap. Mask not on til 1 am then didn’t stay on apparently. Up and out with Red for long walk by 6:35. Put on Zio patch. Ordered groceries for 4 pm pickup. Cleaned garage about 3/4 hours after phone calls to cleaning services. Financial review with TM. B’s mowers came and did a good job. Went to Lowe’s for cleaning liquids and got solar lights and petunia planter   Picked up groceries and put them away. Must finish now. And cook supper after snacking and TV an hour plus. 

11,274 steps, 3.31 mi today !!!

Summer’s back

 

Sunset an hour ago. Leaves filling out blossoms on the trees

    Another warm day I did get some housework done, but not much. Red was very reluctant to walk. He preferred sitting and rolling in the grass. Can’t say anything cuter than that 

Heat is on

     

Hot dog

     89° at 12:30. Red ran five house links from shade spot to shade spot then turned around and he’s laying on the floor to keep his belly cool. Unbelievable  60 One week, 89 the next.  

     I didn’t talk about the mouse infestation yet or some sort of rodent chewed up all my coats in the garage and left a ton of sunflower seeds and urine   Still got a lot of cleaning up to do  I feel like such a bad householder. I guess I am.

       Call from E. Last night  Grandson may come here for a month in June. Hope he gets along. OK big worry is no second car. Guess we’ll make do a call on JP as much as he’ll allow.

What now?

Neighbors spring light at dusk

Plenty to talk about but I won’t.  Mid webinar 

Que sera

 

Sunny today. This was Friday, driving

Not ready to write yet 

Welcome spring

 

In the weeds yesterday

Great weather today… sunny and mild. Not getting much of anything accomplished a lot of lovely day  Did the 1 mile loop with Red. Police car stopped right beside us other side of the street and turned on his siren like to scare the heck out of us  I was bending over picking up poo. Red was off leash and that was afraid he would jump in front of the car. We were also right beside the scary balloons.   Too much adventure?

Did phone chat with sis L Today

Rainy and sleepy

 

SoPo bus stop from sport med waiting room 5/13

About as much as I can say so far. But the do I struck this morning was financial Before 7 AM. Check my accounts, shifted funds, paid out. Must call as about large debt payoff 

Took BP, high early. Walked Red short in light rain. NP puzzles always put me to sleep. I need to stop doing them. Feel solazy. Make some phone calls now go to Pharmacy

Productive day?

 

New ‘do

Worked, I’d say, if imperfectly. 

Walked Red, then off to groomer. Newspaper automaand too many sweets for breakfast, then off to Hub to buy furniture from a young salesman named Ian. 3k: couch, two chairs, two small tables, one pillow delivery in a week

Also called heart doctor and have new Zio patch plus follow up appointment with electrocardio PA in June. And the day’s only half done

Almost midnight now. Rain hard last ten hours.  C and Nola visited anyway with new very acceptable dog chews. Bit of an attack at the end. I suffered high BP and red face least hour took extra propranolol even if I shouldn’t have

Playtime

     

5-11-26 A&E in Portland, C, me, J

 I told my G’s, I, how much I enjoyed conventions. Last one also in Atlanta, national education one. Many good memories. 

Forgetful

 

Apple Blossom buds today

     Almost forgot to post today. I’m about out of time.  I did forget my doctors appointment today. It’s actually tomorrow I was 24 hours early how silly

   I just spoke to I. He had a great time at his furry con With his girlfriend. Bought her a plush And got some T-shirts and a print for his room which he forgot to bring Home, but she will bring it home and give it to him later.  

     Some pics he took:

Mother’s Day night

 

My neighbors outdid themselves

I

Mother’s Day

Closeup

Her gift

I’ve gotten many happy Mother’s Day wishes from people this year. I usually ignore this pseudo holiday  But I like the greetings

   Red and I went to the mall yesterday because it poured rain and never got a good outdoor walk in  We greeted people and bought soap and A book. Yes, I might say it’s a smelly holiday since S sent Lilly of the valley oil as a lovely surprise as well. 

Coyote

 

On the lookout for strangers?

A stranger

Licking its lips

   C caught a young coyote on her ring camera last night.  Looked like an adorable runaway limping puppy.  Good luck, Little fella, and do stay out of the neighborhood. 

Definitely spring

April showers bring May flowers 

  Feeling better today. The peonies grew probably 5 inches yesterday. The trees all burst into leaf or bud, amazes me how that all happens in one day   

  Got my grocery order in by nine and will pick it up at three   A much easier way to shop. Good start. 

Dull, dull,dull

 

Pictures it all this morning. It’s already noon time.

     Propose something to myself and then back out with the slightest resistance, for example, book resale. The seller didn’t pick up the phone. Thrift and Abe impose conditions. That’s too hard!   And checking on my pharmaceuticals. 

Good mornin’

 

Just five more minutes, pleeease!

Today

Long shadows in the ‘hood at 7:15 am

Busy morning so far. Started work with 7am walk. Chat with Pat on her way to ride her horse. Now read, write. German web soon

7000 steps,  2 mi. Watched war movie, Fury. Very sobering. So tired. Crabby. 

So busy I forgot.So for 5-4

 

A different point of view this month

not Exactly scenic

The big homeless encampment was

Here a couple of years ago

To post on this one yesterday. I’ll do the laundry list later. If I feel like it.  

   We took our monthly trip to Portland for a hair appointment with M. So some pics from there

Hello neighbor

 

Hello neighbor

What good looking dogs

     On our walk today, they seemed friendly, but the fence may have been a good idea

Flooded with fears

 

Last rainy day 4-28: a metaphor 

Said it all for now in other blog. Just lounging in bed on this rainy morning seeing how bad I feel for myself and how bad my body feels. Don’t wait. Send $ now. Maybe order restaurant food today and pick it up. Might be the day to learn to use door dash. A’s inability to drive is so worrisome especially considering I may not be able to, either.  

Blue moon in thirty

 

Flower micro moon in Taurus 8:40 pm

I photo, 3-14-25, during a lunar eclipse 

     Today is a flower micro moon, furthest in orbit from earth, Wesak in Taurus, very powerful I am told. So I will webinar Gene Ang’s meditation at peak of the full moon, 1:23 pm est. blue moon means two I’ll moons in one month, so 5-31, and they only happen ever 2-3 years. Apparently I attended that meditation last year too.

     No word from W. Lanier in Ga.  Here’s an example of why people complain against bureaucrats :  demand for call me now, But unavailable every time you do, and no calls back  I expect a call mid-meditation
